38th Legislative District, campaign finance, Josh Reed, Ryan Silvey

We’ve written on this race previously:

38th Legislative District – first quarter campaign finance reports

The August 5, 2008 primary results:

State Representative – District 38   Precincts Reporting 3 of 3

  Silvey, Ryan REP 1,089 83.4%

  McIntire, Marcus P. REP 217 16.6%

  Reed, Josh DEM 1,414 100.0%

Total Votes   2,720

Democratic challenger Josh Reed and his “grass rootsie” campaign will face republican incumbent Ryan Silvey and all that big money in the November general election.

Let’s take a look at those campaign finance reports. First, the second quarter 2008 campaign finance report filed with the Missouri Ethics Commission by Josh Reed (D) on July 14th:

Detailed Summary of Committee Disclosure Report

Committe[e]: JOSHUA REED FOR CHANGE

1. TOTAL RECEIPTS FOR THIS ELECTION PREVIOUSLY REPORTED $8,947.72

2. ALL MONETARY CONTRIBUTIONS RECEIVED THIS PERIOD $3,277.50

8. FUNDS USED FOR REPAYING LOANS THIS PERIOD $1,680.00

28. MONEY ON HAND AT THE CLOSE OF THIS REPORTING PERIOD (SUM 25 + 26 – 27) $4,577.41

[emphasis added]

Let’s look at where the money came from:

Detailed Summary of Contributions And Loans Received

13. TOTAL MONETARY CONTRIBUTIONS RECEIVED FROM PERSONS GIVING $100 OR LESS $1,025.00

[emphasis added]

A little bit of organized labor, a few party committees, individual contributions, and those “grass rootsie” small contributions. That looks like balance to me.

The expenditures:

Okay, let’s go through his 8 day before the primary election report filed with the Missouri Ethics Commission on July 28th:

[emphasis added]

Do you get the feeling that this campaign is being planned around a kitchen table? You’ve got to love it.

No contributions in the two week period (come on people, you know what to do), so let’s look at those expenditures:

[emphasis added]

What? No small dollar contributors? If truth in advertising were required for campaign committee names Ryan Silvey would have to change his to “Corporate Interests for Silvey” (pace our good friends in the Teamsters and Firefighters).

Where did he spend the money?:

Okay, who spends $4000.00 on legal fees for a campaign when your name isn’t Matt Blunt?

Next we’ll go through Ryan Silvey’s 8 day before the primary election report filed with the Missouri Ethics Commission on July 28th:

Still? No small dollar individual contributions? He must be trying really hard to not accept them.

He’s still storing something. I wonder what? His parade car?!

Silvey also filed 24 hour reports listing contributions from PACs on July 29th (pdf), July 31st (pdf), and August 4th (pdf).

This race has a grass roots populist David vs. Goliath feel to it. How about helping out David with a few stones for his sling? You all know what to do.

Do you get the feeling that there were competing republican factions?

Let’s take a look at 2002:

Official Election Returns

State of Missouri General Election  – 11/5/2002

Tuesday, November 05, 2002

State Representative – District 38 – Summary

Total Votes   10,091

Hmm. Judy Bowman (r) had a close race with the Democratic incumbent in 2002 – and Silvey took her on in the primary in 2004. Hmm. It definitely smells like some republican factionalism is going on here.

On to the first quarter 2008 campaign finance reports:

Marcus McIntire (r) filed a Committee Statement of Limited Activity (pdf) with the Missouri Ethics Commission on April 14th. This means that he neither raised nor spent more than $500.00.

Ryan Silvey is the incumbent republican in the race:

Rep. Ryan Silvey

94th General Assembly

Born April 17, 1976 in Kansas City, Missouri, Rep. Ryan Silvey, a Republican, represents part of Clay County (District 38) in the Missouri House of Representatives. First elected to the House in a special election in 2005, Rep. Silvey is a former legislative aide to U.S. Senator Kit Bond…

…A 1994 graduate of Oak Park High School in Kansas City, Rep. Silvey received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Interpretive Speech from the Bob Jones University in 1998.

This has got to be one of the sparsest legislator biographies I’ve ever seen.

That’s it. That’s the totality of this quarter.

Isn’t that grasroots wave a sight to behold?

Let’s take a look at his fourth quarter 2007 campaign finance report, maybe there’s something there:

13. TOTAL MONETARY CONTRIBUTIONS RECEIVED FROM PERSONS GIVING $100 OR LESS $0.00

[emphasis added, added comment in italics]

Uh, yeah. Two post office boxes account for the majority of his fundraising. And he expended almost $10,000.00 on fundraising? Holy cow.

I’m telling you – the grassroots just jumps right out at ya’. Not. You’d think maybe one or two actual individual constituents in his district would cut a check. Wow. Just wow.

If somebody wanted to really pound the pavement I bet they could take this guy on.
